This stunning 1981 Oldsmobile 98 Regency has traveled just 14,000 miles since leaving the showroom in 1981. If you’re looking for a show quality, unrestored, Oldsmobile that will continue to appreciate in value, this is it.
Finished in luminous White, this car’s original finish has a beautiful luster that is further accentuated by its matching full vinyl padded roof and contrasting factory hand-painted Maroon pinstripes. Exterior opera and cornering lamps also contribute to an air of luxury. Optional simulated wire wheel discs and an abundance of chrome complete the look.
This 98’s Regency interior is nothing short of sumptuous. The padded door cushions, simulated Butterfly Walnut-grain door pulls and trim, and courtesy lamps beckon you into an environment of comfort and luxury. The Maroon velour loose-pillow-look seatbacks provide comfortable seating for six. You will also appreciate its split front seats with a center arm rest embellished with rich embroidery. Its commanding dashboard, also finished in simulated walnut and tastefully applied chrome, is a driver’s dream. All areas of the interior, including door panels, seating areas, carpeting, dashboard, steering wheel, and headliner appear as new and are without wear.
Comfort and convenience items do not go unnoticed in this car and include the following:
• Power windows
• Power door locks
• 6-way power driver’s and passenger’s seats
• Electric rear-window defogger
• Automatic cruise control
• Four-season air conditioner
• Front and rear factory floor mats
• Body side molding & bright door edge guard moldings
• Limited slip differential
• Engine block heater
• Tilt-away steering wheel
• Trip odometer
• Power antenna
• Electric clock
All power options work as they should, with the exception of the rear tilt feature on the passenger’s seat.
Under the hood you will find a 5.7 Liter V-8 diesel engine mated to a three-speed automatic transmission. Its glow plugs ensure quick starting every time, and it is equipped with an optional engine block heater to ensure easy startups on even the coldest of days. The car runs and drives like new and has performance that exceeds many of its contemporaries of the time, all while offering impressive fuel economy.
This car benefits from new tires, new front shocks, a new air conditioning compressor, re-coring of the radiator, and a rebuilt fuel pump.
Originally sold from McIntyre Olds-Cadillac, Inc. of Council Bluffs, Iowa, this car has always been properly stored indoors and has never seen a winter. Included with sale are its original keys, owner’s manual and other glove box paperwork, and service records.
Whether showing or cruising is your pleasure, this ultra-low mileage 1981 Oldsmobile 98 Regency is the one for you!
That’s beautiful I remember when these car were on the road I wish I had one
I am a olds historian gm did not put a diesel engine in the 98 model
Beautiful and it màkes me smile hearing the running engine from the outside.
I have the same car, 1981 Olds 98 Regency diesel, but mine has the burgundy exterior paint... I have 20 cars and this Olds 98 is by far my favorite car...These cars are a dream come true and so comfortable and the seats are just perfect.... Once in a lifetime car...I love this 1980-1981 grill best also!!!
Back in the 80's we had a shop specializing in all these GM Diesels. Remember them well. This has to be the nicest one in existence. Wish I could own this. ARP sells a head stud kit for these engines. Broken bolts were on of the downfalls.

Those cars, were the very essence of almost having your cake and eat it too, you take the over stuffed velour seats, and then you grab the chassis from the most popular car in America in 1976 the cutlass supreme, combined with it's carefully crafted ninety eight like styling and you have a cutlass supreme, regency brougham 1982-84, unforgettable experience, performance and luxury.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Congratulations, that is such a beautiful boat - my parents owned one since 1981 (same color in and out) and we kept the car for nearly 20 years in Monterrey, MX and because of this car, all of my cars have been mid-size sedans until today's date.
this olds owuld be considdered a full sized car.
Beautiful car I love it ❤
With only 13,000 you got a classic.the old man who brought it new must have known how maintain it, after 40 years it's obvious.
It’s not maintenance that caused failure on these. The rods literally blow through the block.
Beautiful car!!!
I did have one it was an 81 Delta 88 and the guy I bought it from took the 57 out and put a 6.2 L truck diesel in it and that car was amazing. Average 44 miles to the gallon: trailer Aaron did matter 44 miles a gallon love that car. Still wish I had it
My father had a burgundy colored one. I miss that old boat.
Good looking car !
Sublime! Looking at a 1980 Delta 88 diesel for a daily driver at the moment...
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
@@sluggo1515 Go guard your bridge.
My neighbor had a green one in gas. Wish I had that diesel. Love me some diesel.
wonderful car engine sound as a bus station.
I would trade my first born child for that car!!!!!
It beautiful for 81
That joker is clean
Olds had a good diesel in these year models after the late 70's disaster diesels.
Beautiful
Didn't know those were still around.
Pull that diesel and install a 307 or a 350 and you will have a great car. I should know I had one of those diesels.
Would love that car!!
Wow this car is like a time capsule. This might be the lowest mileage diesel 98 of this vintage around. The only thing i don't like about it is the white exterior. White is super common. Would be awesome if it was another color.
I love this car!
Better, to do a cold start.
It will look and sound different.
funny how gm diesels have a specific sound the idle almost sounds like a duramax even though its non turbo.

Did it come out of emmetsburg Iowa?
That's the same color as my car...but it doesn't have the diesel engine!!
Has this already sold? If not, what is your sale price?
It is still available. It will be auctioned off at the May 2023 Mecum Indianapolis Auction.
They once made some kooky claim that if your dad drove a car like this or a same-age Cadillac, then you have siblings that you never met!
Is it for sale? What are you asking?

Ya don’t run wipers on dry glass.
Great way to scratch the glass and ruin the rubber.
Qwantwz hp??
Is it the D block or the Dx block ? And are you prepared to preserve it as the first owner has done, because if you don’t it will go down hill very quickly, and be very difficult to bring back to the same condition.
Late 1980 the 350 DX block came out for the 1981 model year. 1980 and older had the 350 D block which is junk and not made for high compression diesel engines. I had a 1979 Delta 88 Royals as did my father and both of our engines blew at just over 76k miles and GM covered both of them after they had a class action lawsuit against them.
